JoAnn Berman Electric on The Runway

February 23, 2010 By WG News + Arts Leave a Comment

The JoAnn Berman “Thunderbirds” show was a standing ovation event at The Green Shows (held at The Green House in the LES), during Fashion Week. In attendance were WWD, Vogue, Marie Claire, and Seventeen, as well as model/designer Nicole Murphy (former wife of Eddie Murphy) who had her picture taken with Ms. Berman. She used the Aretha Franklin song Rock Steady to open the show, and proved to be rock steady as model after model flew down the runway to applause. She incorporated her quasi hip hop  graffiti canvases into a montage of phantasmargorical colors and textures as if one were tripping away the night. She proves that the future of Green couture is a trick in her bag which never tires.  Pics after jump.

My Fashion Week Fabulous Escapade

February 16, 2010 By Anne Szustek Leave a Comment

fashion week brooklyn

Fashion Week. The pageantry. The lack of sleep. The excuse to paint the outline of Brooklyn over my eye as a paean to 60s mod redux style. And of course, plenty o’ opportunity to meet and reconnect with fabulous arbiters of style based in North Brooklyn.

Saturday eve’s first stop was a swing by the Chictopia Vice magazine party at the Tribeca Grand Hotel. I spotted a celeb or two, including the deejay of the evening, Erika Forster of Williamsburg’s very own dream pop trio Au Revoir Simone. The crowd was chock-a-block with headbands and winged eye makeup. ARS fandom or part of the current Roaring 20s trend? I’ll let you ponder for yourselves (me thinks it was a bit of from column A and column B). In the meantime, let your eyes feel the fashion beat from this pic from the deejay booth.
